VAMPIRE / ATYA SHRIMP – 非洲巨人网球蝦

Vampire Shrimp, Atya gabonensis, also known as African Fan Shrimp, Giant African Fan Shrimp, African Filter Shrimp, Giant African Filter Shrimp, Gabon Shrimp, or Viper Shrimp, are natives of parts of Western Africa and parts of South America. Vampire Shrimp are fan feeders that snatch their food from the water current in the tank with their little fanned hands. They are peaceful, tranquil, on the shy side and they like little places to hide. At the same time, Vampire Shrimp seems to be very social with other filter shrimp. They appear to be very comfortable hanging out in the water current with other freshwater shrimp, especially Bamboo Shrimp.
